Increasingly, we
need to develop agile solutions in less time, and declining budgets and
increasing customer expectations make it more important than ever to get it right
the first time. We need sage advice, honest critique, and experienced guidance
from competent professionals in our field. We also need access to lessons learned
by others to adapt their tried-and-tested solutions to our situations.

In this session, participants
will learn how to use online professional groups and online communities where
thousands of learning and development professionals are willing to help. You’ll
learn how best to participate, and ways to ask for help in a way that elicits
authentic, valuable advice. Using your personal devices (laptop, tablet,
smartphone), you will join specific communities and groups of training and
development professionals, and learn about mobile apps that can connect you to these
valuable resources.
